I don't know what to do with this.

My buddy gave me a 5 gallon bucket full of brand new oil. Great find, but he said it's basically a mix every weight out there, different brands, synthetic & non, maybe even gear lube. It smells like it but it's in a gear lube bucket so who knows.

I'm kind of scared to put this in anything I care about, but it's freakin 5 gallons of oil...hate to see it go to waste. Ideas?

i use all my mixed oil in my dirtbike i know its not the best but it already has fried rings and burns oil like crazy so why buy new oil when i got all of this mixed for free.

hmmm... go pour about 5 quarts of it onthe ground under the engine of a buddy's truck. Then make sure you are there to see his reaction when he backs it up and sees all that oil. comedy gold right there.


put some under your rear wheels for a wicked burn out.

kill the weeds growing in the cracks in your driveway.

use it for oiling bicycle chains on all the neighbor kids bikes.

just a few suggestions.

Haha. Good ideas so far.

The guy I got it from said he was changing oil in his cars with his other buckets of oil...but he is not the brightest one out there. He has lots of weird stuff like this though so it's cool to get free stuff for working on his junker Jeeps.

Bar oil. Or cutting oil for a drill press/saw etc... Sucks that it's brand new.

I know... it's actually drippings from superlube. I guess their fill hoses or something get drained into buckets and taken home.

Chain saw lube, or other generic lube (like door hinges). Or just fill several gallons and redistribute the wealth to other friends.

Take it to Alaska. Dump it in the water and scream VIVA LA EXXON!!!!! repeatedly until you get arrested.




Seriously, I'd take it to the nearest oil change shop and be rid of it.
